Mix and Match 6200-9100 appliances

Hi CheckMates,

I am planning the migration of a security group hardware from 6200 to 9100 and have some doubts.

Dual site enviroment, only one MHO per site. Security Group is only present on site 1, has 3 X 6200 appliances, current version R81.20 Jumbo Take 65. Orchestartors version is R81.20 Jumbo 41.

I see on sk181698 that we need to run R81.20 Jumbo 65 on 9100 appliances in a Maestro configuration. But after a R81.20SP clean install, network connectivity is lost/blocked and the only possible connection is with orchestrator. How we should instal jumbo 65 on 9100 appliances before adding them to SG?

Also on sk181698 i can see 9100 boxes work on UPPAK. I think 6200 appliances work on kernel mode and can not be moved to user mode at this moment. Is there any problem if we add 9100 with UPPAK to the existing security groups working with KPPAK? sk162373 says it is a supported combination i would think it is already considered but wanted to confirm anyway.

About traffic distribution, 6200 has 4 cores and 9100 has 8. Is it necessary to configure weigths to work properly? We will be taking out a 6200 at a time until only the 9100 remain and would prefer not make many changes that should be rolled back later.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards

Just to confirm, did you image them with the "Factory Image for Quantum Force 9100, 9200, 9300, 9400, 9700, and 9800 Appliances operating in a Maestro configuration" from sk181698? It's not a normal R81.20 image.
